@MN5 haaaa says the guy making assumptions about people's supposed assumptions and about people being offended. Oh and don't forget you can't do that unless you've been an all black.

Please read my post again. It's way too late in the evening to re iterate a point that I can barely remember making.
Which probably sums up just about all my posts.

JTA

Wasps seem determined to hoover up as many NZ players as they can for next season - kind of surprising given the restrictions - although maybe not if Brexit frees them up from having to abide by EU rules on numbers of Aus/NZ players in match-day squads.

Sting operation no doubt.

Your persistent hijacking of this thread has reached it's end, finally. I can't see you not getting banned for that.

Now it is JTA who is joining Wasps at the end of the SR season. This is becoming a mass exodus.

@cgrant Canes might not have a squad next season.
@Canes4life Lua Li is a better player than Chris Eves. You can get him from Harbour.

Montpellier owner, Mohed Altrad, on Aaron Cruden "Our outside half, since he's here, keeps hurting himself. This season he has been injured four times. It is difficult for him to be efficient. We hoped for something else."
A reminder to all those joining the Exodus that their new owners are unlikely to be as patient and understanding as NZR.

@sparky I feel so bad for Altrad!

Yes, poor Tyler. Education at Christchurch Boys' High, two years with the NZ under 20s, four years at Canterbury and three season at the Crusaders (as understudy to the best Five Five of all time) and receiving so much world-class coaching must have him totally underprepared for being poached by Ireland.

Given that Cruden left because he "missed a plane" and was frequently injured, what was Altrad expecting?

Err ‘poached’?? I think Munster contracted him. And they have been patient. He’s had 46 appearances since 2015/16 and they even extended his contract until June this year.

Did he really leave because of injuries and behaviour? I don't think so. He got past the blot on his copybook and was clearly valued by they AB coaches but could see that he was not going to hold off BBs rise to permanent 1st choice and had already ticked off his NZ career aims. Ideal time to collect some money for the years of work.
The problem that many overseas clubs are finding is that when they recruit a guy that has been to the top of the mountain they don't have the same motivation to go back there.
The better value for money is in the good players that are 'bubbling under' or blocked in their NZ pathway. They have the motivation of turning the game into a decently payed career.Absolutely it is a case of buyer beware for Altred.
